PE 1000 / PE-UHMW Sheets – MR – Regranulat
Our Regranulat PE-UHMW | PE 1000 | Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene sheets are renowned for their exceptional properties. They exhibit remarkable wear resistance, an impressively low coefficient of sliding friction, and extraordinarily high impact strength. These PE-UHMW sheets are characterized by their low density and virtually nonexistent moisture absorption.
The PE 1000 / PE-UHMW plastic offered here, containing recycled content, boasts unique qualities. It offers limited weldability, exceptional resistance to impact, remarkable chemical resistance, self-lubricating attributes, excellent stress crack resistance, and can be used in temperatures as low as -200°C. Notably, it is FDA-approved for food contact.
The PE 1000 / PE-UHMW Sheets – MR – Confetti version provides an economical yet high-performing material. It holds food approval and exhibits strong chemical resistance.
This particular UHMW sheet material is non-toxic and available in a wide range of colors, starting from a thickness of 10mm and beyond. Polyethylene excels in wear resistance under low-load conditions, and higher-grade options like UHMW-PE excel in these scenarios. The Confetti UHMW sheet material is lightweight and buoyant, making it an excellent choice for underwater applications. It also boasts excellent impact strength, remaining intact even under substantial force.
